Baked Lemon Pistachio Brie Recipe
Baked Lemon Pistachio Brie Recipe is an easy baked brie recipe. Garnish with pistachio nuts, fresh thyme, honey, and dried lemon slices!
Ingredients
- 1 8 oz round of brie
- ½ cup shelled pistachios
- ⅓ cup lemon curd
- 2 Tbsp. honey, optional
- Fresh thyme or rosemary, finely chopped
- Sweetened Dried Lemon Slices, I buy at Trader Joe's
- Thinly sliced baguette, for serving, or favorite crackers (we love Lesley Stowe Raincoast Crisps)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Place brie round on an ovenproof serving dish. I like to lay parchment paper down on a baking sheet.
- Slice the top of the brie round off, cutting inward to make a bowl. Remove the “lid.”
- Fill the bowl with the lemon curd and 1/2 cup of pistachios. Sprinkle with 1/2 the finely chopped fresh thyme or rosemary. Place the lid on top, pushing down. (It’s okay if a little bit falls to the side). Drizzle with honey (optional). Sprinkle with the remaining pistachios and chopped thyme.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese inside the rind is melted and bubbly.
- Serve hot with your favorite crackers or baguette bread slices.
Notes
You can use any flavor of curd or jam.
Swap out pistachios for your favorite toasted nut.
Use an herb in season (like basil).
